1.1 Introduction
The TREK-520 is a dedicated box computer for industrial, transport trucks,
buses and taxis. TREK-520 combined with variety of I/O connectors can be
connected to devices like OBD-II (see Ch3.3) or TPMS (Tire Pressure
Monitoring System) external modules via COM port. Dual display/dual audio
interfaces supporting different resolutions can deliver different applications to
different displays; eg: one application to a driver and another to a digital
signage application.
Built-in wireless communications (WWAN, WLAN, BT) enable TREK-520 to
send important driver/ location/cargo information back to the control center.
TREK-520 can also operate in extreme environments with features like a
wide working temperature range (-30 to 70 degrees). TREK-520 also uses a
special design to handle the critical issue of in power. Special power
protection (ISO7637-2/SAE J1455 Class A/ SAE J1113) and power
management software (Ignition on/off, delay on/off, low battery monitor)
prevent electrical noise and surges from impacting the system, guarding
against damage from transient power.

simply fol- low the onscreen
instructions. The
setup program guides
users
through preparations of the
hard drive, and installation of the operating
system.
When presented
with an operating
system command
prompt,
like, A:\>, then it
is
nec- essary to partition
and
format
the hard
drive, and manually copy the
operating sys- tem files to
it.
Refer
to the operating system user instructions
about partitioning and formatting the hard drive.

Low Battery Protection
When the system is ON, and
(1) The battery voltage (DC input) is lower than LOW_THRESHOLD (at T6)
(2) and this situation lasts for LOW_DELAY,
, then the system will send Power Button signal to OS (at T7) to start the shutdown
process.
At this time (T7), the LOW_HARD_DELAY is starting to countdown.
Once LOW_HARD__DELAY is over, the system power is removed abruptly.
Before T1 The system stays off.
power is fed in, but Ignition is OFF.
T1 Ignition is ON and the ON_DELAY is starting to count down.
T1 ~ T2 This duration is and it is ranged from 1 to 18000 seconds.
T2 Once the ON_DELAY is over, the system will stay On or OFF, depending
on the BIOS setting “POWER-ON after Power Fail”.
If “POWER-ON after Power Fail” is set as ON, the system will be powered
ON.
If “POWER-ON after Power Fail” is set as OF, the system will stay OFF
and you could press the power button to turn on system.
T2 ~ T3 The system is under normal operation.
T3 At this time, the Ignition is OFF, and OFF_EVENT_DELAY is starting to
count down.
T3 ~ T4 This duration is OFF_EVENT_DELAY and it is ranged from 1 to 18000
seconds.
T4 When the OFF_EVENT_DELAY is over, the system will send a power
button signal to the OS and the user application should prepare the
shutdown process.
The HARD_OFF_DELAY is starting to count down.
T4 ~ T5 This duration is HARD_OFF_DELAY and it is ranged from 1 to 18000
seconds.
T5 When the HARD_OFF_DELAY is count to zero, the system power is
removed abruptly to avoid extra and abnormal power drain from battery.
This parameter is fixed with a value of 60 seconds.
After T5 The system stays off.

LOW_DELAY is ranged from 1 to 3600 seconds.
LOW_HARD_ DELAY is fixed with a value of 60 seconds.
Note:
Q1: How is the low-battery event raised or canceled?
A1: The minimum value on LOW_DELAY parameter is 1 second. If the voltage remains
lower than the LOW_THRESHOLD in the duration of LOW_DELAY, the low-battery
event will be raised and immediately send a power button press signal to OS.
During the duration of LOW_DELAY, if the battery voltage is back to be higher than
LOW_THRESHOLD, the LOW_DELAY will be reset to predetermined value and stop
count down.
Therefore, the LOW_DELAY parameter acts as a filter to prevent incorrect
low-battery-event from happening.

Figure 4.9 Off event delay
Off Event Delay – it means after 5 seconds delay from receiving of ignition OFF signal,
EC controller will send a shutdown event to make system start shutdown process
Figure 4.9 Hard Off delay
Hard off Delay – it means after 30 seconds from shutdown event, EC controller will
force power cut off at the same time.

Figure 4.9 On delay
On Delay – it means after 2 seconds from receiving of ignition ON signal, EC controller
will send a power-on event to make system start booting process.
Figure 4.9 Low delay
Low Delay – it means after 30 seconds delay from receiving of Battery Voltage LOW
signal, EC controller will send a shutdown event to make system start shutdown
process.
Figure 4.9 Low hard delay
Low Hard Delay – it means after 60 seconds from Low Voltage shutdown event, EC
controller will force power cut off at the same time
Figure 4.9 Battery voltage Threshold level setting
You could set the LOW battery voltage value by changing level 0 to 65. For example, if
you’re using 12V battery, and you set level as 50, it means the LOW battery voltage
value is 10.147 + 50 x 0.0146 = 10.877 V.
Checks which source you’re connecting. DC supply or 12V or 24V battery.

Dead reckoning
We will need a 3-axis accelerometer that our software can talk to.
We use this to characterize driver behavior such as hard
accelerations, braking, and cornering. This also can tell us other
significant information that can be used in accident reconstruction,
etc… This one of the crucial items that we asked for in our
specification and our customers’ expectations are making this a
definite must have in our system. We won’t be needing any dead
reckoning functionality at this point in time… this is something we
may want to include in the future but in order to get cost down we
have decided to forgo this at this time. Please confirm that we will
have access to this or another accelerometer.
4.5
G- sensor
We currently, we don’t have documents about G-sensor, but a code
example is ready for customer reference. This code example ONLY
introduces how to access the G-sensor under Windows XP/XPe, but
users must control the G-sensor and develop their SW application by
themselves. Therefore, customer can decide how to set the
sensitivity value when to trigger G-sensor to send signal to CPU and
to back end server through WWAN module. G-sensor is located on
the motherboard inside the TREK-520. Please refer the link
(http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/ADXL345.
pdf) for the G-sensor datasheet.
